'If' doesn't need to be capitalized. And it'd be helpful to call out in
the changelog that the number of pages in the memslot is stored as an
unsigned long, as opposed to "a VM has too many pages", which kind of
implies userspace misconfigured the VM. E.g.:
This results in overflow if the total number of pages across all
memslots exceeds the capacity of a u32.

This should be 'unsigned long' to match kvm_memory_slot.npages, and
because replacing 'u32' with 'long' technically reduces the number of
pages a guest can have before encounterring the wrap on 32-bit KVM,
though I highly doubt anyone cares about that scenario :-)

Might as well remove that extra whitespace while you're at it.

In the next version, with nr_mmu_pages becoming an 'unsigned long', it
probably makes sense to declare KVM_MIN_ALLOC_MMU_PAGES as 64UL so as to
avoid this cast (and I assume the check in kvm_vm_ioctl_set_nr_mmu_pages()
will also complain about signed vs. unsigned).
